It took a while for the results to come in, but when we finally got them, they only made official what we thought all alongthe 99 Chryslers at Carlisle event was huge! We thought it felt bigger this year than in years past, and then the totals came in: with 1,110 show cars registered, it blew away last years total of 924 cars.

Not only did Mopar fans find it at Carlisle, they brought their Mopars, too. Carlisle has long been associated with car events as the ultimate in swap meets, but by cresting the 1,000-car mark, this has become a must-attend show. Proof was found in the abundance of cars entered in each of the Fun Field categories as well as the Standard of Modified Excellence judged category where the number of entrants more than doubled.

Another important measurement of growth: the family quotient. The atmosphere at Carlisle lends itself to participation by parents and their car-frenzied kids. This was most apparent in our effort to display our ongoing theme for Chryslers at Carlisle coverage. Carlisle Productions motto, I Found it at Carlisle, again is part of how we cover the event. As you read through the captions, youll notice that our hobby isnt just the guyskids and wives are getting in the act, too. Best of all, our attempt to show new Mopar fans was unintentional. Wed walk up to some guy carrying parts, and hed tell us it was his wifes or sons part for their own carhe was just the hired carry grunt! That, more than anything else, made the event great for us!

In less than a decade, Chryslers at Carlisle has proven to be a premier Mopar show. Weve always had a good time there and with the numbers climbing every year, the increased participation of clubs, and the amount of people just simply enjoying themselves, other Chrysler fans must think so as well.
